My Catholic Life

I was baptized in a Catholic church because my mother and my father is a catholic. My mother is a

religious women while my father is not very religious. I became an altar server at the age of 9yrs old, I

became an altar server because my friends encouraged me to join. I served masses while my mother is in

the church praying and I see her looking at me in the altar with a proud eyes, she was very happy and proud

seeing me in the altar. She always supports me in my activities in the church. Until now I am still an altar

server in our church. When I serve at early masses she is the one who wakes me up and we go to the church

together.

There are times that I stopped serving in the church because I experienced a problem and because

of that problem I doubt God and blamed God. I was lost at that time and I really don’t know what to do in

my life, I feel so many struggles and it is very hard for me to overcome it. That time I stopped serving, I’m

always laying on my bed and questioned God and my existence. Time passes by I overcame it and back in

serving at the church again. My friends in the church are asking why I stopped serving and I just answered

them that I’m busy because it’s a very long story to tell. I thank God and sorry to God because I thank him

for helping me overcame that problem and sorry to him because I doubt his existence and questioning him.

I learned a lot from that problem and the very important thing that I’ve learned from that problem

is acceptance. That experience is very stressful and very hard because I’m really lost and I even start thinking

to commit suicide. I also learned forgiveness, forgiveness because I learned how to forgive that person

because how can I not forgive even God forgives us from our sins and give us his only son. I learned that

we should not doubt God because of our problem instead seek help to him and trust him that it is all part of

his plan to give us the best and there are a lot of things that I’ve learned from that problem.
 Until now I am still an altar server and I have a strong faith is God. I always pray to him that he will

give me a bright future, be a successful man, will overcome the struggles or problems that will come to me

and a happy life. When I reach College I think I will stop being an altar server because we all know that

college life is a very busy life but even though I stop being an altar server I will still serve God in a different

way like praying and going to church when I have a time, there are a lot of ways to serve God. I will never

stop serving God and I will always have faith in him no matter what because I learned from my mistakes

and I know that God has a plan for me.

We should never stop loving and have faith in God, just trust him. God gives us challenges because

he wants us to be a better person. God has a perfect plan for us just don’t give up on life and trust him. I

realized that we should all learn from our mistakes and be better because of that mistakes. I realized that we

should never give up on life because life is a gift from God and life is sacred we must not put it into waste.

I realized that God has a perfect plan for us and he knows what’s best for us, just trust him with all your

heart. I realized that we must not doubt God because he never stops helping us and giving us blessings. God

will never let us down just trust him and always pray and ask for forgiveness, God will forgive us. I realized

that even if we are Catholics we should respect other religions. Don’t doubt God because he never doubt us.

We can do all thing through Christ because he is always there guiding us in his own special way and he is

always there whenever you are in pain, in happiness, in joy and in sorrow he is always there for us so we

should obey and have faith in him.
